Effect of the Number and Substitution Pattern of Carbazole Donors on the Singlet and Triplet State Energies in a Series of Carbazole-Oxadiazole Derivatives Exhibiting Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence

Substitution of a varying number of 9H-carbazole donors onto 2-(pentafluorophenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole yields a series of donor–acceptor compounds with similar electrochemical band gaps, but dissimilar optical properties. Each substitution of a carbazole onto the 2- and 4-positions results in a 150–200 meV stabilization of the first singlet excited state, evident in the fluorescent emission. Here, the first triplet excited state is less sensitive to these substitutions, leading to a reduced energy separation between the singlet and triplet states, ΔE ST , with increasing carbazole content. OLED devices made using the donor–acceptor compounds exhibiting the lowest ΔE ST were fabricated and exhibit sky blue emission with an external quantum efficiency of up to 24.4% at a luminance of 10 cd m –2 , and 9.2% at 1000 cd m –2 .

62°S Witnesses the Transition of Boundary Layer Marine Aerosol Pattern Over the Southern Ocean (50°S–68°S, 63°E– 150°E) During the Spring and Summer: Results From MARCUS (I)

The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Mobile Facility-2 was installed onboard the research vessel Aurora Australis to measure aerosol properties during the 2017-2018 Measurement of Aerosols, Radiation, and CloUds over the pristine Southern ocean (MARCUS) Experiment, providing unique data on aerosols latitudinal and seasonal variation, including south of 60 degrees S where previous observations are scarce. Data from a Cloud Condensation Nuclei (CCN) counter and Ultra-High-Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer show that both the number concentration (N-CCN) and size distribution of CCN-active aerosols, with diameters (D) between 60 nm < D < 1,000 nm are different over the North Southern Ocean (NSO) (50 degrees S-60 degrees S) and the South Southern Ocean (SSO) (62 degrees S-68 degrees S). The average NSO N-CCN at 0.2% and 0.5% supersaturation were 28% and 49% less than that over the SSO. This increase of CCN over the SSO is caused by the increase of aerosols with 60 nm < D < 200 nm, consistent with calculations of Aerosol Scattering Angstrom Exponents derived from a nephelometer. Aerosol hygroscopicity growth factor measured by the Hygroscopic Tandem Differential Mobility Analyzer stayed close to 1.41 for aerosols with 50 nm < D < 250 nm over the SSO, but increased from 1.30 to 1.67 over the NSO, indicating different chemical compositions. Both CCN and Ice Nucleating Particles (INPs) showed a stronger variation with season than with latitude. The variation of heat-labile and presumably proteinacous INPs suggests an increase of ice nucleating-active microbes in summer.
